So today is our wedding anniversary. My husband and I have been married for 17 years! Wow!

I thought it fitting to show this piece of art we were given a while back. It shows a man playing a musical instrument and a woman weaving. While some may look at it that the woman is doing all the work while the man is relaxing... I see it as two people doing what they love the most. Which pretty much sums up the two of us.

My husband loves to make music. He is a guitar player mostly, but can play other instruments. He doesn't really play the flute or whatever it is that this guy is playing. (He likes to releax too)


I love to work with fiber. I love to knit, spin, crochet. Where as I don't weave (yet) I am very interested to add this to my growing love of all things fiber.


Another aspect of this that is totally me is the fact that this thing is really dusty! (Ha! I never claimed to be a good housekeeper)

Anyway, Happy Anniversary my dear husband! I love you and hope for 17+ more years to be with you doing what we both love.

ps: this is my very talented husband!

Yarn and kittens....2 of my favorite things!

Don't you wish it could really rain balls of yarn? And the kittens. CUTE I tell you CUTE!

ok so it's for cat food. I still love it.

PS - I changed the look of the blog just one more time...looking at it with 2 blue balls just made me laugh. Ya know?

;-)

the weekending....

It seems I have come down with a cold this past week. So this weekend I thought I would take it easy a bit and do some mindless spinning.


It would also appear I was pretty productive for not feeling too swift. I managed to finish spinning up some Merino/Bamboo/Nylon (4 oz to be exact), plying it and washing it too. I just love bobbin to finished shots, don't you?

Looks like ice cream! And it's so soft!

Next I finished up some sample spinning. This is only about 2 oz of mixed wool from Spinners Hill. It is so lovely though

I even did some dying! I will save that for tomorrow. I am not sure blogger will let me add any more photos today.

What a gorgeous fall weekend this has been. I hope you are all out enjoying the weather while it lasts.

PS - I changed the look of the blog. I like this more simple look.

this moment....yarn sometimes can be so darn sexy!
